I noticed in the 1972/1973 ARRL handbooks that I have there is a
4-1000A amplifier project with a linearity metering circuit. Look for
the SS-2000 project. This seems like an incredibly good idea, however
I have never seen anything like this in any other amplifier except for
something similar apparently in the ACOM 1000A (and presumably the
2000). It seems to me that the ability to tune for optimum linearity
would be a "Good Thing"(tm) and the circuit design appeard to be
simple to implement.
Was the original designer of this circuit blowing smoke or is this
something worthwhile to add to a homebrew amp?
Jason - As I recall, the Collins 30L-1 had a linearity metering
circuit.
